I think communication with your student is important. As a tutor, you can not force a student to do things your way, so it's important to be able to compromise and help them with what they think is important so they don't lose interest in a subject, whether it is a struggling student or one that wants to excel. By involving them in the process you…

Ancient History Tutor Acton, ACT
A tutor is not there to do a student's homework for them but rather to help them think and problem solve in new ways so that they can complete their work more effectively and be a more independent learner. Thus, a tutor can help by bringing with themselves a large amount of knowledge in the subject area(s) and by having a patient and understanding…

Ancient History Tutor Canberra, ACT
I think one of the most important things a tutor can do for a student is to give them confidence in themselves and their understanding of the subject. I find that from confidence can come a wealth of improvement in performance, as a student's willingness to take risks and belief themselves can go a long way. In terms of specific strengths, I…

I believe it is essential to understand your student, and adapt your teaching and communication style to benefit their learning style, age, personality, and knowledge. It is important for a tutor to really believe in their student, and do all they can to help them excel. I believe I have excellent communication skills as I am able to adapt to each…

Ancient History Tutor Acton, ACT
I think the most important facet is personalising lesson plans and taking time to understand the main shortcomings of each individual student. Being able to have open conversations and earn students trust to offer constructive feedback that extends outside the lesson - e.g dealing with mental stress and study regimes - can be far more important to…

Ancient History Tutor Canberra, ACT
I believe the most important thing a tutor can do is to help students develop critical thinking skills. It’s not just about giving them the right answers, but guiding them to ask the right questions, break down problems, and reason through solutions on their own. This way, they become independent learners who can tackle new challenges with…

Hugo

Ancient History Tutor Acton, ACT
I think to be dependable and reliable is the best thing for a student, so that they can feel safe with asking for help from their tutor. A student must first feel safe around their teacher so that they can more openly accept guidance and assistance. I consider myself a very friendly and approachable person. As someone who experienced academic…

Inside HarrisonTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 12 student Sol worked through titration problems involving concentration, volume, and moles to strengthen practical chemistry calculation skills.

In Year 10, a focus for Lily was on improving writing by developing sentence formation and mapping out a course outline.

For Year 11, Marcus tackled basic differentiation of exponential and trigonometric functions, using step-by-step practice to build confidence with these calculus foundations.

Recent Challenges

A Year 12 student working on titration struggled to organise knowns and unknowns when using the Ca × Va = Cb × Vb formula, leading to confusion about which values to use—"should have listed all information…to see which could solve the missing information," as a tutor noted.

In Year 11 maths, negative self-talk ("not good at maths," "has a bad memory") often surfaced after setbacks, lowering motivation for revision and discouraging questions during lessons.

Meanwhile, a Year 8 student's written work was flagged as needing improvement; unclear layout made following her calculations difficult during problem-solving sessions.

Recent Achievements

A Harrison tutor noticed a Year 11 chemistry student who previously struggled with stoichiometry now accurately calculates moles and unknown values, working independently through each step.

In Year 10 maths, Zoe has begun arriving at sessions with her own list of questions—she used to wait passively for guidance but now drives the lesson forward and even caught an error made by the tutor.

Meanwhile, Luca (Year 12) has shifted from hesitating to ask for help to openly expressing when he's stuck, leading him to apply derivatives confidently to new problems without prompting.

Local Spots for Tutoring

If you'd prefer not to have lessons at home, tutoring can also take place at a local library—such as Gungahlin Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Harrison School.
